[SIZE="3"]Let us be realistic, which one would the "pinoy" masses would really buy?[/SIZE]


The PHUV?


or

a Toyota Innova?

local builders don't make cars people wanna buy

that explains their market share

kahit gaano karaming pera ang ipadala ng mga OFW...

as long as local builders do not produce cars people wanna buy

they will fail to steal market share from foreign brands

If you are talking about "Pinoy Masses" they cannot possibly afford this two. Only the upper middle class (PHUV cost around 550K; Innova starts at 885k ) and rich can afford them.

At the same time, the concept vehicle called "PHUV" cannot be bought because no one eventually produced it.

In my opinion, the Pinoy masses can only afford this...

if we are gonna be specific with terminology, most Filipino "masses" also could not afford those passenger utility vehicles which cost more than P100,000 each

the true car of the masses is not a car

it's a motorcycle

just look at the number of "single" motorbikes on the road today

i'd like to see LTO data on new motorbike registrations

if there's a 5-year chart, it would definitely show an upward slope

anyone with a job that pays a little above minimun can afford to buy a motorbike (thru hulugan)

that's the true people's "car"

So the PHUV should actually be a motorcycle?

[uls]

hehe

more like the PHUV should be PRICED like a motorcycle

haha



--

"single" motorbikes are so popular with the masses coz of price and availability of financing

it's personal transport that's within reach of the masses

it's not something the masses can only dream about but it's something that's really attainable

brand new, pretty, and affordable

an average wage earner can walk into a motorcycle dealer and ride home on his brand new motorbike

Then he'll be carted off into the ER when something goes wrong.

tapos ginagamit pa as a family vehicle. Usually tatay sa harap, nanay sa likod, baby naka sandwich sa gitna.

There should be a tata nano-like vehicle for the Philippines. Halos kapresyo ng motor pero at least merong 4 wheels at proper cabin (asa na nga lang sa crash safety though, and sobrang gaganda talaga ang traffic situation sa city pag nagkaroon ng ganyan)
